Virus [♂] &
Augur [♂]
Virus, Model .oo1 of DOT's first line of Android units, wears his title proudly. He
knows that he's a feared household name, and he
knows that no matter how many of those VR units they make, they will never surpass his superior design.
So why,
why did he have a feeling of artificial dread running through every wire of his being?
"
You heard me the first time, Virus, and I know I don't need to repeat myself." The Creator chided him, nudging a slightly larger...
something across the table to face him. Said
something smiled in a smooth, suave, condescending way that made Virus want to punch it.
"
A pleasure to meet you, Virus. I'm Augur." This "Augur" held out his hand, presumably for Virus to shake or possibly kiss, considering that superior air about him. He glared at it.
"
I did hear you, Master," He growled up at the human, "
But a little more explanation would be nice."
The man sighed dramatically, flopping onto his favorite swivel chair and propping his elbows onto the table. He watched the two Androids with great amusement as Virus glared determinedly at his new partner's face, as if he stared long enough the other unit would either melt or malfunction. It wasn't working well. "
Alright, then." He said finally, noting how neither one moved away from their starring/glaring contest. "
One of the PDs found him in an alleyway; his casting was broken and he was malfunctioning from water damage. Build with an over-active sympathy drive-" Here he scoffed, "-
She brought him back to the labs. You where damaged pretty well, Augur, but we where able to save your modem from getting too soaked."
However, whilst allowing your casting to dry, we noticed something. Your tongue had a wire in it, and your data was encrypted in some sort of new language. You're the first VU we've ever seen up close, you know." He added with a mischievous gleam in his eyes, enjoying how Virus did a double take at this new realization. The Android's eyes widened and he could practically
hear the wires cackling with electricity in his head. His smirk widened; as did Augur's.
"
Y-you... What?" Virus sutured, and mentally slapped himself for it. He was
not intimidated. Not one bit.
The VU took a step forward, Virus took two back and almost fell off the desk. He glared. Augur laughed.
The human smiled and stood and, with a flourish wave of his hand, stepped out of the room.
"
Enjoy your new partner, Virus. I think you'll work quite well togeather."
